How the 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser Compares With Its Competitors

Pricing, power, fuel requirements, towing, and drivetrain configuration help distinguish the FJ Cruiser from other 2010 SUVs. The FJ Cruiser's starting MSRP is $25,770; MSRP excludes tax, title, registration and dealer fees.

The 2010 Nissan Xterra starts at $25,600 and produces 261 hp, compared with the FJ Cruiser's 260 hp. The Xterra offers 15 city / 20 hwy EPA MPG, 5,000 lbs of maximum towing, Four Wheel Drive / Rear Wheel Drive, and Regular Unleaded fuel, while the FJ Cruiser uses four wheel drive and recommended premium unleaded; the Xterra may suit shoppers focused on towing flexibility and regular fuel.

The 2010 Mercury Mariner starts at $25,310 and produces 171 hp, versus the FJ Cruiser's 260 hp. Its 20–21 city / 26–28 hwy EPA MPG, 3,500 lbs of maximum towing, All Wheel Drive / Front Wheel Drive, and Regular Unleaded fuel favor buyers prioritizing fuel economy and drivetrain variety, while the FJ Cruiser emphasizes higher output and four-wheel drive.

The 2010 Jeep Liberty starts at $24,865 and produces 210 hp, compared with the FJ Cruiser's 260 hp. The Liberty offers 16 city / 22 hwy EPA MPG, 5,000 lbs of maximum towing, Four Wheel Drive / Rear Wheel Drive, and Regular Unleaded fuel, giving buyers a choice between its towing and fuel approach and the FJ Cruiser's higher power and recommended premium unleaded.
